“When I was thinking of this movie I thought he was someone I would like to write a part for and I’m aware he’s not Clark Gable, he’s not tall dark and handsome, but he’s adorable, he’s lovable,” she continued. “It’s my way of saying this is the right kind of guy, this is what most guys look like if they’re lucky, he’s so adorable, and why not? Everybody has a heart and deserves to fall in love and he should get a great girl. So I fixed him up with Kate Winslet.”

“Kate was incredible as I anticipated,” Black told Coming Soon in 2006. “It was a huge reason why I wanted to do the movie. I was such a big fan of hers, I just love her work and her acting.”
